1976 Kellogg's Joe Rudi ⭐
On October 15, 1972, at Riverfront Stadium, Joe Rudi made a game-saving catch of Denis Menke’s drive to help the Oakland A’s defeat the Cincinnati Reds in Game 2 of the World Series. Rudi’s leaping grab against the left field wall preserves a 2-1 victory. The ball briefly popped from Rudi’s glove, but he regained possession for the out. Rudi also homered for the A’s.

The win gave the Athletics a 2-0 game advantage as the WS shifted to Oakland.

Happy Wednesday!
